California Life is the perfect way to escape the hectic and sometimes stressful pace
of urban lifestyles. On the coast, downtown San Diego to the Del Norte
Redwood Forests, our Golden State still quietly boasts of the lost,
treasured charms of California’s pre-population explosion.
The Central Valley lies in the heart of this jewel, its vital resources
connecting Sierra to the Sea.  California Life leads the visitor
through the Sierra Nevada mountains and neighboring foothill communities,
truly picturesque towns with unique histories. Step back in time to
California's 49er Gold Rush State Historic Parks to wilderness areas in our
State & National Parks. Explore Lifestyle, Travel, Dining, Food, Fashion,
Entertainment, including the places less traveled in the Golden State.
